901234 ÷ 74 
We want to divide 901234 by 74.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 9 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 9.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 9 leaves us with 9.
Take the next digit (0) from the dividend and append it to 9, then repeat: 90 / 74

On to step 2:
90 divided by 74 is 1 with a remainder of 16.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we take 74 away from 90, we end up with 16.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 161 / 74

Step 3:
74 can be fit into 161 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 13.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12.0
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 148 from 161.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 13, then repeat: 132 / 74

Moving on to step 4:
74 goes into 132 1 times with a remainder of 58.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 121.0
If we subtract 74 from 132, we get 58.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 583 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 583 by 74, we get 7 and a remainder of 65.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1217.0
If we subtract 518 from 583, we get 65.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 65, then repeat: 654 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
If we divide 654 by 74, we get 8 and a remainder of 62.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 12178.0
The remainder is 62 after subtracting 592 from 654.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
620 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12178.8
The remainder is 28 after subtracting 592 from 620.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
If we divide 280 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 58.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12178.83
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 9:
74 can be fit into 580 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 62.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12178.837
Deduct 518 from 580 and we're left with 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
620 divided by 74 is 8 with a remainder of 28.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 12178.8378
If we take 592 away from 620, we end up with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 280 by 74, we get 3 with a remainder of 58.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12178.83783
The remainder is 58 after subtracting 222 from 280.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
580 divided by 74 is 7 with a remainder of 62.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 12178.837837
Subtract 518 from 580 to get 62.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 620, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
74 goes into 620 8 times with a remainder of 28.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 12178.8378378
Deduct 592 from 620 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
If we divide 280 by 74, we get 3 and a remainder of 58.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 12178.83783783
Subtract 222 from 280 to get 58.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 580, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 12178.83783783 with a balance of 5.8e-08.
